      What are the odds these will ever come out in a more stealthy version (blue seams for instance)?

      Unlikely….

        The world seems, indeed, to be heading for Ragnarok!

        Life for me personally is good though, been working my ass of the last few years, getting more tattoos, traveling more! And you? all good? Long time!

        I've been working as little as possible, watching my children grow up, getting no tattoos in recent years as my skin has gotten weak & my tolerance to pain greatly diminished, but I plan on traveling more in 2016 & hopeful to run in an actual race or 2 as I've been forced to take better care of myself by the wife

        stay well @Lucifer  I always had a thing for fallen angels & rebels

          Your life sounds more constructive than mine 🙂 I do agree that getting tattoos grows more painful for each and every one I get, I had this notion that I "would get used to it", complete rubbish.. 🙂

          You should head on over to the cold north where I reside on your travels! Lots of nice places to run in the wild, and the weather is… temperate.

          Seize the day and don't you cry.

            @bertoni the rise on the 555 isn't high, it's a mid rise as far as I can tell & what does the jeans being pulled up high have to do with a blow-out? u sound about as craqzy as me right now, hahahaha

            🙂 Not crazy, but saggy balled maybe?! I dunno, compared to my 634S worn in the same place on my hips, the 555 hangs uncomfortably low in the crotch area. Maybe it's more obvious because they're more fitted in the top block, but the stress on the crotch area is gonna cause problems in the long run and I don't want to have to send the fuckers off for repairs every ten minutes 😉

              seen all my repairs on my 555 02  . . . so u might have a point . . .or it just might be the way some of us are built, walk, & move around.  I repair jeans in the inner thighs & knees all the damn time regardless of the cut just because of how I'm built & the amount of time I spend crawling around asking for forgiveness, hahahaha

              either way I'm watching to see which pair you go with

                Definitely agree with the crotch issues. I think the thickness in fabric makes the rubs worse as well. I always get crotch blowout but I think the more extra fabric you have down there likely adds to the problem.

                  I'm excited for this new run. I grew out of my 21oz Beatle Busters (they were always a bit too tight), but despite them being my favorite pair of denim I always felt like the rise was a little high for me, and they weren't tapered enough after having them hemmed.

                  I think these will be a jackpot  😉

                    The new ones are here and yes indeed they are more to the sizing I had originally envisaged.  So the last 5 pairs of "version 1" are on special at USD235 - that's USD100 discount

                        Quick (maybe redundant?) question: how much stretch can one squeeze out of the thigh-measurements (if necessary)?

                              Hmmm, it's my best fitting IH-jeans out of the box. I'm pretty happy but also a bit saddish that this cut won't be continued in its first edition… it's an awesome mix between 555 and 666.

                                        @Kathrynnaomi, along my denim journey I learned the difference between tag size and actual size, raw and one wash, sanforized and unsanforized etc, this also gave me an awareness of my own actual waist and how it changes for different rises. As each IH pair of jeans is cut slightly differently, I went straight to the sizing guide for the IH-777's and chose the ideal fit for me. My suggestion is to correlate your exact measured waist size at the height of the rise and don't worry about the " give " in the denim (sanforized only) …Hope that makes a little sense, it's a little more complicated than the usual 8,10,12,14 etc that we are used too  😉
                                        Perhaps you have your 777s already?

                                        This is VERY good advice!!!
